Fox Ridge Manor in Vincennes is an Independent Living community that backs its lifestyle offering with an unusually broad set of clinical supports. Residents who need oversight for diabetes—whether managed by oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin—can receive that monitoring on site. The staff is trained to assist individuals who use oxygen, require wound attention, or simply prefer to have caregivers available throughout the night. Admission is open to adults under 60 and to those with mild dementia who benefit from a structured environment without needing full memory-care programming.
Clinical resources are reinforced by clear staffing and safety protocols. All team members undergo background checks, an activity director coordinates programming, and 24-hour staff coverage is combined with pull-cord and personal emergency response systems that alert caregivers immediately. On-site professionals include a nurse, occupational and physical therapists, a podiatrist, and hospice specialists, enabling medication management, incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, and end-of-life coordination without leaving the property. For daily living, residents can request standby help with bathing, dressing, toileting, and transfers involving a walker, wheelchair, or one-person assist.
Apartments vary, but many feature a private bathroom, independent temperature controls, and cable service, and residents may paint or decorate their space to suit personal tastes. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided, reducing household chores while preserving privacy. Dining is flexible: meals are prepared to order, snacks are available throughout the day, and in-room service can be arranged. Diet modifications are accommodated for medical or personal reasons. Because floor plans differ, not every unit contains every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm specifics during a tour.
Independent Living residents can add targeted support without purchasing full service bundles. Medication-management monitoring is available for those who want daily oversight, and weekly housekeeping plus scheduled laundry keep apartments tidy. A monthly meal plan can be selected, ensuring predictable dining costs while still allowing residents to cook or order à la carte when they prefer.
The community offers resident parking, campus-wide internet access, wheelchair-accessible common areas, scheduled transportation, and a pet-friendly policy. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
